Research Problems • Unknown pathogenesis mechanisms • What is (are) the main immunity that response to the bacteria? Innate>Adaptive? Vaccine? • High mortality and relapse rate? New regimens? • Various clinical profiles? • Rapid diagnostic? • Drug resistance may be exist. • Unknown environmental factors? • Human is an opportunistic host?
Our research objectives • การค้นหาองค์ประกอบของเชื้อ B. pseudomallei ที่เกี่ยวข้องกับการก่อให้เกิดพยาธิสภาพในโรคเมลิออยโดสิส โดยจะเน้นไปที่ LPS, capsule และ flagella • หายีนและกลุ่มยีนเป้าหมายอื่น เช่น Sigma N ที่มีผลและบทบาทต่อการก่อโรคของเชื้อ B. pseudomallei • ศึกษากลไกการป้องกันโรค และหาวิธีการขยายเวลาฉีด โดยใช้ CpGร่วมกับ liposome ในการป้องกันการติดเชื้อ B. pseudomallei

Conclusion part I • LPS and capsule may associate with virulent of the bacteria. (in vivo). • LPS mutant (lack of O-polysaccharide but still have Lipid A and core antigen) lower invasion, adhesion, lower MNGC and susceptible to NHS, NO and antimicrobial peptide. • LPS mutant induce more cytokines (IL-1β, IL-12 and iNOS) than wild type • LPS and capsule may be involve in bacterial virulence.
Sigma N • The sigma factor 54 (RpoN) • The sigma factor 54 (RpoN) • The RpoN-dependent enhancer binding protein (EBP) • There are two sigma N found in Burkholderiapseudomalleilocate in two chromosome • Sigma N1 locates in chromosome 1, sigma N2 locates in chromosome 2
Genome sequence of B. pseudomallei • Sigma N 1 in Chromosome 1 : • Core function as cell growth, metabolism, macromolecule • synthesis, cofactor, chemotaxis and motility • Sigma N 2 in Chromosome 2: • Accessory functions as osmotic protection, regulation, secondary metabolism, adaptation and survival in different environments M. T. G. Holden., et al. PNAS2004; 39: 14240-14245
To study functions of sigma N in • Burkholderiapseudomalleiour approach • construction of B.p. sigma N mutants • both N1 and N2 • functional analysis of the mutant vs • its wild type • since N1 is involved with the core • function, therefore can’t construct • a mutant for sigma N1

Conclusions for part II • We are not able to construct a B.p. sigma N1 mutant, since sigma N1 is involved in core functions. • We have successfully constructed a B.p. sigma N2 mutant and its complement strain. • The rpoN2 is involved in biosynthesis of amino acids: Ala, Ile, Cys, Met, and Asp • The rpoN2 also regulates some virulent properties: • Multinucleated Giant Cell formation • Biofilm formation

Mice survived from CpG protection did not develop adaptive immunity
Mice survived from CpG protection did not develop adaptive immunity Protected mice Survival rate of 2 groups are not significant different Infected naïve mice
Include antigens in immunization procedure PP = Paraformaldehyde treated B. pseudomallei
